🔴 The Judiciary’s Media Center announced that the death sentences of #MohammadAminBiglari and #ShahinVahedparast, two imprisoned protesters linked to the January 2026 protests in Tehran, were carried out this morning following confirmation by the Supreme Court. The Judiciary alleged that the two individuals played a role in "attacking a classified military site, destroying and setting it on fire, and attempting to gain access to the armory." 🔸The case of these prisoners was presided over by Judge Abolghasem Salavati in Branch 15 of the Tehran Revolutionary Court, where the death sentences were issued on February 7, 2026. Mohammad Amin Biglari’s lawyer had previously objected to serious ambiguities regarding the "confessions" attributed to his client, calling them into question. This case was initiated following a fire at a Basij base in eastern Tehran. As several other defendants in the same case are being moved to solitary confinement, concerns over the fate of the remaining convicts continue to grow. 🔸With the execution of these two protesters, the Islamic Republic has executed at least nine political prisoners this week alone.

Coups in Africa, crackdowns in Iran, a jailed opposition leader in Turkey. On today's FDD Morning Brief, @JSchanzer and @freedomhouse's @gorokhovskaia examine what's driving the two-decade global authoritarian surge and whether democracy can fight back. x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

Fue un placer visitar a los artistas Ilse Antón Rodríguez y Rafael Pérez Alonso en su galería "Lavandería.” Hablamos sobre el importante papel de la comunidad artística independiente en la vida de un pais y sobre todo lo vital que es la libertad de expresión y pensamiento. De hecho por parte de @USEmbCuba reiteramos el llamado de que se liberen a Luis Manuel Otero Alcántara y Maykel Osorbo, artistas injustamente encarcelados. #MSI #Todos
